One Last Chance to see Best-selling Author Ann Packer
Songs without Words, Packer’s latest novel, expertly navigates the politics of a close friendship between two women and asks the question: What happens when a relationship you’ve treasured all your life suddenly seems broken beyond repair? Her previous book, The Dive from Clausen’s Pier, won the Kate Chopin Literary Award and was the first ever Good Morning America Book Club selection. Copies of Packer’s books will be available for purchase and signing.

Maxine Rose Schur Reading from Places in Time: Reflections on a Journey
Schur set out to see the world. With high spirits and little money, the author traveled not only far geographically, but emotionally, toward the hearts of others. She faced the violent grief of a Mexican sheriff, celebrated a wild elopement in Turkey and was initiated into a mysterious daily ritual with an Iranian forest ranger. Looking back, she tempers her youthful encounters with mid-life wisdom, capturing the spirit of those she met, and evoking cherished places in time. Places in Time was voted 2006 Best Travel Book of the Year by the North American Travel Journalists Association. A book-signing will follow Schur’s presentation.
